Wedding sneak peeks!

June 19th we had the pleasure of being a part of Megan and David's wedding at The Longboat Key Club in Longboat Key, FL.

It was a gorgeous wedding with a lavender, purple, silver and platinum color palate. We used purple hydrangeas and two shades of lavender and purple roses. The wedding was flawlessly executed by Nicole Kaney of NK Productions.

Below is a sneak peek picture from the fabulous Mr. Phillip McDonald of Phillip Lloyd Photography. Click HERE to see more pictures on his blog!

Cute Etsy wedding or Bridesmaids gift find!

Here is a cute idea to consider when sending out save the date’s, invitations, or thank you cards. It’s a great alternative to pre-printed envelopes or calligraphy. It can also serve as a fun bridesmaid’s gift or a gift for yourself! Enjoy.

Botanica and Central Florida Bride Magazine

A couple months ago we were asked to participate in a photo shoot at The Grand Bohemian Hotel in Orlando, FL for Central Florida Bride Magazine.

We had a great time being on set and providing touches of florals needed for the different shots!

It's always great to be amongst wonderful company and were thrilled to spend the day with Solutions Bridal, Caroline Johnson Photography and Jeffrey Stoner of Stoner Video.

Jeffrey was there to capture the action! Take a peek at the video below - we LOVE the cover shot they chose as well - kudos to all involved!

Happy Feet!

Long gone are the days of the ho-hum white or dye-able shoes ladies! The new exciting trend in wedding shoes is to use the shoes to express your personality and creativity on your feet and even your bridesmaids feet. We love the use of color on a bride, it just adds the perfect pop of personality to the lady of the day. Having the bridesmaids in a shoe-bootie, gladiator, or funky t-strap could be a fun way to make an original design statement as well. Here are some of our favorites right now!
